The Lyrics

This is a little known fact, Fehd, but the Doobie Brothers once submitted to Islam for a period of, like a week, and began calling themselves "Al Ikwan Al Dubi" (The Doobian Brotherhood). And much to their astonishment, they discovered they could sing their song "Jesus is Just Allright With Me" into Arabic without changing the melody AT ALL. And just to show you its possible
Do do do do do do do DOO
Do do do do do do DOO do
Do do do do do ....
(Screw all that; lets just do the real lyrics)

'Isa tayyib bi nisba lii
Innahu tayyib, Wallah*
'Isa tayyib bi nisba lii
Innahu tayyib, bil fa'el**
Ma ahtam mahma yaqul
Ma ahtam mahma yaf'al
Ma ahtam mahma yaqul
Innahu TAYYIB ...

عصى tayyib bi nisba lii
Innahu طايب, Wallah
'Isa tayyib bi nisba lii
Innahu tayyib ...
Ma ahtam mahma ya'rif
Ma ahtam ماهمة yathhab
Ma ahtam mahma ya'rif
Innahu tayyib

(Slowing it down ...)

عصى, huwwa sahbi
Wa 'ISA-A-A-A-A .. huwwa sahbi
Ikhadhni bi yadain
Qadni ilaa Jan-NAT al Na'im#
'Isa, huwwa sahbi

Isa tayyib bi nisba lii
Innahu tayyib, Wallah ..
(هذا كفاية .. Thats enough)

(Some may protest that Muslims dont believe in Jesus, but they do .. as a prophet who is second only to Mohammed. Which means the sentiment "Jesus is just allright with me" is better suited to the Muslim notion of Jesus than the Christian. He's allright, but you dont worship him)

(Now the Arabic name for the Christian version of Jesus is Yaswi'. So, in order to help you sort these two Middle Eastern Jesuses out, I give you this ditty by Luis (Al Walid) Prima, who converted to Islam in 1924 for about three hours just to compose it)

Yaswi' .. have no Messiah
No Messiah in Islam today
Yaswi' .. have no Redeemer
No Redeemer for Muslims today
We have Muslims and Kuffars (Infidels)
And an Allah who's Akbar
And we all bow down to pray
We've got a brick Ka'aba in Sa'udi
And an all destroying Al Mahdi
But يسوع .. have no Messiah
No Messiah in Islam today



*Indeed, he is OK, by Allah .. **Indeed, he is OK for real ... #He led me to the Garden of Delights (one of the seven heavens)
